I took the “Are You A Real Man?” test and came out with as a “Total Jerk” at 33%. I think the question that pushed me over the top was “Do you like to kill your own food with your bare fists?” to which I responded, “Fuck, Yeah!”

When I first heard about the spray-on shirts designed by Fabrican I was mildly interested. I’ve seen it before in an episode of Futurama. But it wasn’t until I the saw the image to the left (originally taken by Forbes magazine) that I began to tingle and then think about the distinctly “adult” uses for such a product. I’ll let you fill in the blanks while I take a cold shower.

Google Video is currently hosting a fascinating documentary from 1972 about the Arpanet. The Arpanet was the precursor to the internet invented by universities as a way of sharing information with each other and a way to be able to use the resources of each other’s computers. It was pretty exciting times. The first email had been sent and received just a year ealier. It would take another 7 years before the first Spam email would arrive.

The documentary is a half hour long so if it’s of interest then get comfortable. If it’s not, then watch this instead.
